Ngai Tahu's $400 million investment in a North Canterbury dairy conversion meant an Environment Court appeal to restrictions on its plans was inevitable, farming and environmental groups say.
In July, Ngai Tahu Farming was granted a limited resource consent to irrigate about 7000 hectares of its 8596ha Balmoral Forest farming conversion - a fifth of what it had asked for from Environment Canterbury (ECan).
The conversion attracted criticism when proposed because of the environmental impact on the nearby Hurunui River, and this had been taken into account when commissioners made their decision.
Ngai Tahu has since lodged an appeal with the Environment Court, but was unable to give specific details about the grounds for appeal yesterday.
"Our development team continues to work through the regulatory processes. This includes the appeal process, which is designed to address errors and resolve issues in a manner which is fair and transparent," Ngai Tahu Property chief executive Tony Sewell said.
North Canterbury Federated Farmers president Lynda Murchison said "purely from a commercial perspective" an appeal had been anticipated.
"Given the investment they have in that property and the consents they have already obtained . . . it was highly likely an appeal would follow," she said.
Commissioners Paul Rogers and Emma Christmas granted Ngai Tahu a leach rate of 6.6 kilograms of nitrogen per hectare per year but, with free-draining soils at Balmoral, the project would be severely limited, Murchison said.
Waiau River Care Group member Lynda Laing said Ngai Tahu's planned farming project would be "seriously compromised" by the restrictive consent, which the group welcomed. "From our point of view, we don't want them to appeal," she said.
Former ECan councillor and opponent to the project, Jane Demeter, said a "considerable amount" of the Balmoral Forest had already been cleared which indicated the project was well on its way".
Opponents said the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus leached would exceed the Hurunui and Waiau River Regional Plan limits.
It allows for 963 tonnes of nitrogen a year at the State Highway 1 section of the river and 10.7 tonnes of phosphorus.
Nitrogen and phosphorus can be harmful to river health, producing bacteria and algae.
Of the 102 submissions to the consent, just one supported the project.
The commissioners' decision was commended by Murchison because it "stayed true" to the limits set in ECan's Hurunui-Waiau Regional Plan.
"If the commissioners had fully granted the consent, it would have left nothing for other farming activities in the area," she said.
"The most forward-thinking way may not be first in, best dressed."
Ngai Tahu Farming has appealed because it says the HWRRP was incorrectly applied by commissioners.
The hearing was the first major consent heard under the HWRRP and was expected to test nutrient limits set in the plan.
Ngai Tahu lawyers Chapman Tripp said the nutrient limits from the plan were incorrectly applied and sought to have the resource consent conditions amended to the same as set out in the original resource consent application.
It would agree to mediation of the appeal, said the appeal document.
Federated Farmers North Canterbury meat and fibre chairman Dan Hodgen said he hoped the court would also stick to the rules in the regional plan.
"Fairness and equity in allocation is something that the community needs to decide - not the courts," he said.

South Middle School Presents "Life in a Jar"
JOPLIN, MO.--- The 325th performance of "Life in a Jar" was tonight at South Middle School. The play is about Irena Sendlers life. Sendler went against all odds during the Holocaust and rescued over 2,500 children from German ghettos, without being caught. She buried their confidential information in jars so the children could reunite with family after the war. The show has traveled all over the world in the past 15 years.
"Irena Stenler is a role model for young people. She shows us that we can stand up against all odds and, through courage, we can bring about hope and change where we need it," said Megan Felt, Life in a Jar Co-Founder.

came out for the 1967 model year, and for the 1970 model year, Jeep became

Get to the top! It's quite a view at 781ft. San Francisco looks beautiful from up there!
Family owned restaurant. Ask for Star and her sister Theo (both are short for longer Greek/Christian names)
The food is average, noting really tasty about anything. Complete let down. The desserts are it's only redeeming factor.
They offer you drew food while you wait. Coffee and doughnuts in the morning and sandwich and cookies in the afternoon. Monday through Friday... good deal!
The best chiropractor south of the Mason Dixie line! Truly the BEST!
Be sure to stop in and say hi to Georgie, the company's French Bulldog. :)
Come here during the week and enjoy an empty, peaceful beach :)
Ask for the French lady, Claudine. She is simple amazing!
Waited 20 mins and no one came through to offer us drinks. 4 servers were in the area, and no one came by. Got up and left!
Good food! FYI, they close at 10pm on Saturday.

While this program has crashed a few operating sys, it is because the infections were in that deep. After formatting, and reinstalling OS and programming, I have had no other trouble. I have used this on 98, ME, and XP Home and Pro. It has beat ALL other virus programs hands down for digging out infections. On a fresh machine, no worries. On a machine that has been on line for some time, BACKUP your important files before installing, just in case the infections are deep in the OS.
No mail scanning, No uninstall.
"Doesn't Uninstall well and contains Bundled Adware"
Version: Avira Free Antivirus 6.27
The product seemed to worked well, it caught some virus's.
Now for the cons: I noticed when I did Ctrl Alt Del. that there were several adware programs listed, where there had been NONE before.
This is why I decided to uninstall. Tried to do it from add/remove programs, and it would not totally uninstall, the bar indicator just sat there at 3/4 of the way, for a LONG time. So finally I trashed the folder and contents. Now when I restart my computer I get a dos screen saying that the system.INI and registry says I am missing a file 'AVGuard' necessary to run the program, every time I restart. Although I am able to get onto Windows, this is a pain. I am not sure how to get around this. If I reinstall the software, what happens if it does NOT uninstall again?
I use Windows 98, with a Pentium Celeron processor, at 128 mb's of RAM.

It detects and eliminate viruses that Norton and even the powerfull Panda can't. The perfect solution for virus protection for free.
I have being used this software for 6 months and I don't detect any cons.

"Bottom line: Caught virus AVG, AVAST, and NORTON did not."
Version: Avira Free Antivirus 6.27
Caught Trojan Flooder.Deflo.A in an unopened file program called Deflooder.zip made for ICQ. Perhaps it was just a line the file program itself used to detect and combat this trojan, however the other free scanners (including Norton's (Symantec) Online Scanner!) did not detect it. (Makes me wonder if these programs would have detected the trojan even if this was a false positive.) I kept a different ICQ anti-flooding program and deleted & wiped the zip file I had never opened, as AntiVir can report but not clean archives. It also searched through my (Windows ME) restore (back-up) archives, opening each one to scan which apparently AVG did not. 1) Norton (Online) told me I was fine. 2) Avast! told me I was fine, and after uninstalling I got an "ashbug.exe" loop in my Ctrl-Alt-Delete window. This is after having no problems with viruses and not using scanners for 10 years. 3) AVG (which I used to check for remnants of "ashbug" after recovering by restoring inspite of misinformation through an online search saying not to restore) said I was fine (and the restore fixed the problem). 4) AntiVir (one last try of a free scanner) was the first to indicate an unrelated 'infection', although my system has slowed, which the others didn't do. So, we'll see. I might use it only occassionally, but I'll use it to find and solve possible infections. My email works with it also (AVG clashed with my email & firewall setup).
Took 3 times as long to scan, just finishing with my restore files in the time AVG scanned my whole hard-drive, but I liked the fact they were actually scanned for a change. It seems to have slowed down my system noticeably (1Ghz Pentium III 128Mb ram). Bottom line, it picked up something the others didn't. I may only use a virus scanner intermittantly so I can use my firewall and email without hassle, but when I do it'll be this one.

I would love the price to be lower but, considering this is a first go for a film that has been tough to find, I find the quoted price to be fair. I have been using Efke 25, which is nice, but I suspect that the QC on these Ilford films will be quite a bit higher.
For what it's worth I'm still deciding on what to order. $300.00 plus for twenty five sheets. Am I in that league or fooling myself? Jim's 8x20 prints are impressive and Vaughn's 4x10 prints are stunning. How's the poem go? "I took the road less traveled and found it was a dead end." Get what you can and hope for the best I suppose.
Imagine needing, wanting, more than one format!
At least Ilford / Harmon alive and producing, and FP4+ is and has been a great film.
At MPEX 2 7x17 FP4+ & 2 HP5+ 122 rolls will cost me 730 bucks.
At Freestyle the same order is 780 bucks. Better savings with MPEX.
I'd really only like to order one roll of 122, but I want to make sure this will be on next year's list.
If there's better prices, let me know!
I'm curious about the 90mm FP4+ film too. I can't figure out what it's used for either. Tempted to just buy this for savings over HP5+ 122 rolls. FP4+ would make more sense in my Kodak 3a camera - but consider my 2 rolls of 122 committing to the world cause.
Any ideas how to store 122 film? Best I've though of is 4x6 print sleeves.

They certainly don't have such luxuries as a tripod socket. :)

The 127 camera that I have now (somewhere, thought it was on the bookcase) has a top shutter speed around 1/100, and I use it for daylight walk-at-lunch sort of thing, or did until the Efke curl drove me crazy. ISO 400 and sunny-16 puts me where? f/32? I like *some* choice on depth of field.
Waiting for a 127 Rolleiflex to ship. The pictures look good, and if it is half as good as it looks, I'll be happy.
Of course, by the time I have this film, the days will be getting shorter and 400 may be just the thing.
I'm certainly not complaining. I just like the full variety.

As scheduled, the limited-run play Mauritius has its final Broadway performance today. Being that it is produced by the non-profit Manhattan Theatre Club and therefore under a different contract with the stagehands union, Mauritius is one of the shows to continue playing during the Broadway strike. The play benefited from being one of the few options for theatergoers wanting to see a Broadway show — during the last two week of its run, attendance shot up 20%.
The following two tabs change content below.

Problem solving runs through many activities. Often problems are contexts for focusing ideas and stimulating further investigation or discussion. Framing an issue appropriately – identifying why it is a problem, recognising factors that might have a bearing on it and outlining what an acceptable resolution or solution might look like, are important approaches. Improving your problem solving skills means raising your awareness of this process. In developing and assessing this key skill you will learn to use and adapt your skills confidently and effectively in different situations and contexts. This unit is designed to be studied for 1 hour per week over 50 weeks.
Having studied this unit you should be able to:
- develop a strategy for using skills in problem solving over an extended period of time;
- monitor progress and adapt your strategy as necessary, to achieve the quality of outcomes required when tackling a complex problem;
- evaluate your overall strategy and present the outcomes from your work using a variety or methods.

Key skill assessment unit: problem solving
This key skill develops your problem-solving skills in your studies, work or other activities over a period of time. To tackle this key skill, you will need to plan your work over at least 3–4 months to give yourself enough time to practise and improve your skills, to seek feedback from others, and to monitor your progress and evaluate your strategy.
Problem solving runs through many other activities and, rather like the key skill in OpenLearn unit U071_1 Improving own learning and performance, it can be thought as a 'metaskill' – something that helps you plan, choose, use and adapt the specific skills you need to tackle effectively a particular problem. The key skill of problem solving supports you in planning, monitoring and evaluating a range of problem-solving strategies and techniques.
What is defined as a problem tends to depend on the particular context in which it is framed. In mathematics, for example, problems may often be well defined and have particular solutions which can be assessed by commonly agreed methods. In other areas, however, particularly where different people, perspectives and values are brought together, agreeing the boundaries of a problem and how it might be tackled – or even whether there is a problem at all – can be difficult.
In a broader sense, sometimes problems are better not seen as things to be 'solved', but as contexts for focusing ideas and stimulating further investigation or discussion. Framing an issue appropriately – identifying why it is a problem, stressing the factors that might have a bearing on it, and outlining what an acceptable resolution might look like – then becomes a central activity. From this perspective, problems are seen as significant questions for negotiation and enquiry, not as solvable puzzles for which there is a single, unambiguous correct answer.
Using problem-solving skills, therefore, is not a question of simply selecting a well-defined problem, choosing a particular procedure to deal with it, and then coming up with a solution. It is about people understanding the context in which they are working, recognising a gap between the present situation and what is desirable, and then being able to move strategically towards their goal.
Being strategic means breaking down an overall goal into sub-goals and reducing a problem to manageable chunks which can then be solved individually and then moving forward. However, there is no guarantee that any particular set of sub-goals will work. The trick is to try to choose those sub-goals that will simplify the problem, and avoid those that will make it worse. The key skill of problem solving aims to raise your awareness of this process.
Improving your skills involves planning how you will frame, explore and simplify your problem area, as well as finding out about the tools and techniques you might use. You will also need to apply, practise and review your skills, using feedback from others to help you think about your progress in relation to your goals. Standing back and reviewing the stages in your work helps you develop a mental picture of 'how far' you are from your goals, and what you could do to reduce that distance. Finally, evaluating your strategy and presenting outcomes gives you the opportunity to demonstrate your problem-solving skills, and to assess how successful your strategy was in achieving what you set out to do. This unit is designed to be studied for 1 hour per week over 50 weeks.

Fostering For Profit YKTTW Discussion
|Fostering For Profit
Foster parents that take in a child only for the money.
Fostering for Profit is scenario where a foster family treats the raising of a foster child purely as a business. They are in it only for the money the kid brings in. Therefore they spend on the kid as little as possible. They are also emotionally and often physically abusive towards the children. There are several possible ways this scenario can work. In some stories, the real parent of the child (almost always a single mother) is still alive, but can not take care of the child herself, so she makes her own arrangments to have a family take care of the child while she sends them her own money to assist in raising the child. A In modern stories, a more common scenario is for the children to be in the custody of the state but placed in a foster home. In this scenario, the government gives the foster parents money that is supposed to go toward taking care of the child. This can be very similar to an Orphanage of Fear. See also Abusive Parents, Department of Child Disservices and Wicked Stepmother.
ExamplesComic Books
- Done in The Sandman volume "The Doll's House".
- Taken to evil, and all too real, extremes in Slumdog Millionaire.
- In the movie Hotel for Dogs, near the end of the film, the brother gets shipped off to one of these... and is miserably unhappy.
- There's a family like this in Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's "not quite a remake of The Parent Trap" movie, It Takes Two.
- In The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, Squeers takes in unwanted children for a high fee, and starves and mistreats his charges while using the money sent by their parents to pad his own pockets.
- In the book White Oleander, the main character ends up in one of these, with a woman who lives in an opulent house funded by the checks sent for the various girls she takes in, spending very little on the girls themselves, including putting a lock on the fridge when she isn't home (which is most of the time). The movie version left this out.
- The Tenardiers in Les Misérables bleed Fantine dry with their demands for more money for Cosette, while coercing labour from the girl and stinting on her food and clothes. They repeatedly try to up the price when Valjean comes to rescue the child.
- An episode of Criminal Minds features a couple who does this. Doing simulated drownings on their kids to keep them in line, and padlocking the fridge. One of the serial killers of the week attempt to get one of the kids to shoot the abusive step mother, but the kid desists and shoots the staged "happy family" pictures, calling them all lies.
- The French-Canadian series Les Bougons featured one of these, on a farm no less. The parents refer to the kids as numbers, and one of the kids notes that this kind of foster home ain't so bad since "Here you don't need to sleep with the old man for food at least."''
- Shows up in a few Law & Order: Special Victims Unit episodes -- the cops go to a suspect's (or a victim's) last known address and find out the person hasn't been there for months. The foster parent or caretaker hasn't reported them missing so they can still collect the checks.
- In Doonesbury Duke starts an orphanage and acquires as many kids as he can in the expectation of a big government payout.
- Seen in Futurama, where Bender is told the goverment gives checks for adopting orphans. He learns later he's supposed to use that money to take care of the kids, and that the government stipend barely covers it. Ironically, despite the abuse, the kids love him. He then tries to break even by selling the kids as food.
Police officer: "You're under arrest for child cruelty, child endangerment, depriving children of food, selling children as food and misrepresenting the weight of livestock."
- Parodied in the third episode of 'The Cleveland Show. The forster parents lock the kids in the basement and see them as a source of income only. The kids are starved enough to resort to cannibalism. The parents also treat their operation the same way drug dealers would treat theirs: When a hearing could cost them a welfare check, they resort to shooting the parties involved to keep the kids (and associated cash).

Them Crooked Vultures (Grohl, Homme, Jones) Announce Fall Tour
By Tom Breihan and Amy Phillips on September 1, 2009 at 12:55 p.m. EDT
Them Crooked Vultures are hitting the road. The brand new Dave Grohl/Josh Homme/John Paul Jones supergroup have played a few shows so far, but they've all been last-minute one-offs or secret guest appearances at European festivals. But now, they've scheduled a full-scale tour, hitting North America in October and the UK in December.
On October 2, they'll play the Austin City Limits festival. While they're in the area, they'll tape an episode of the PBS show "Austin City Limits", to be aired sometime in the future.
Also, last week, the band posted another song snippet to their YouTube channel. This one sets footage of the band at work in the studio to new jam "Elephants", some serious drive-time classic rock choogle business.
Tour dates and video clip below:
Watch Them Crooked Vultures Perform a Full Song Live in Amsterdam
By Tom Breihan on August 20, 2009 at 1:20 p.m. EDT
The new triple-headed rawk supergroup Them Crooked Vultures likes to stay shrouded in mystery. Thus far, Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, and John Paul Jones have only played two shows, announcing them only a few days ahead of time.
The internet, however, makes total secrecy just about impossible. As Rolling Stone points out, an audience member managed to capture an entire Them Crooked Vultures song on video at their show in Amsterdam last night. The audio on "Dead End Friends" isn't great, but it's good enough to reveal that this song is fucking heavy. Check it out below.
News in Brief: Them Crooked Vultures, Cold Cave, GusGus, Fistful of Fandango
By Tom Breihan on August 17, 2009 at 2:25 p.m. EDT
-- Them Crooked Vultures, the new Dave Grohl/Josh Homme/John Paul Jones supergroup, will play their second show at Melkweg in Amersterdam on August 19. That's this Wednesday! Check out the poster for the show here, via Them Crooked Vultures' Twitter.
-- The Matablog has announced that the Philly-based experimental synthpop crew Cold Cave have signed with Matador. On November 3, the label will reissue Love Comes Close, the band's self-released debut album.
-- On September 14, Kompakt will release 24/7, the new album from the long-running Icelandic dance collective GusGus.

By Tom Breihan on August 12, 2009 at 11:15 a.m. EDT
Last week, we alerted you to the existence of triple-headed rawk hydra Them Crooked Vultures, the supergroup comprised of Queen of the Stone Age Josh Homme, Foo Fighter Dave Grohl, and Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones. On Sunday night, the band played its first show, at Chicago's Metro after the Lollapalooza festivities came to a close. And last night on its Twitter, the band posted a link to a tiny sliver of a new track. (Yes, Them Crooked Vultures have a Twitter.)
The song has the emo-as-hell title "Nobody Loves Us and Neither Do I". It's hard to tell too much about a band from 14 seconds of music, but it's worth noting: That riff never resolves! That sort of makes Them Crooked Vultures roughly fifty bazillion times more math-rock than we could've expected. Check it out below.
Also, not too much YouTube evidence of that Metro show seems to exist, but a couple of intrepid camera-phoners did manage to capture blurry snippets of heaviness. Those videos, which include a tiny bit of a particularly sick-sounding JPJ bass solo, are also below.

Them Crooked Vultures-- the megawatt supergroup of Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl, Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme, and Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones-- made their live debut last night at a Lollapalooza aftershow at the Metro club in Chicago. A small group of very lucky fans snapped up the show's tickets in three minutes; they got to witness Grohl back behind the drum kit, with Homme playing frontman.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times' Jim DeRogatis, the band played all original material during its 80-minute set; song titles include "Interlude w/Ludes", "Caligulove", and "Scumbag Blues". DeRogatis also reports that Them Crooked Vultures' debut album, Never Deserved the Future, will be released on October 23.
Dave Grohl, QOTSA's Josh Homme, and Led Zep's John Paul Jones Team Up
By Ryan Dombal on August 4, 2009 at 1:40 p.m. EDT
According to Antiquiet, Dave Grohl told Mojo magazine in 2005, "The next project that I'm trying to initiate involves me on drums, [Queens of the Stone Age's] Josh Homme on guitar, and [Led Zeppelin's] John Paul Jones playing bass. That's the next album. That wouldn't suck."
Four years and hundreds of rumors later, it seems like this no-qualifier-necessary, cap-S Supergroup is ready for its close-up. They've got a name: Them Crooked Vultures. (Via Antiquiet.) There's an oh-so-cryptic show listing for a post-Lollapalooza midnight gig this Sunday, August 9, at Chicago's Metro that features symbols for the Foo Fighters, Led Zeppelin, and Queens of the Stone Age. And there's also an official-looking website that links to Them Crooked Vultures hubs on MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter. The Twitter lists Them Crooked Vultures' bio as "Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, John Paul Jones." Super and online friendly!
While a fall tour and new album are currently being whispered about, official spokespeople are keeping mum about Them Crooked Vultures at press time.

Dr. Stephen N. Schott's Ratings
The helpful staff will always work me in when I am sick and treat me like family. As with any Dr. occasionally will have to wait but the staff will let me know when I sign in, if there has been an emergency or just running a little behind. I have been coming to Dr. Schott for years and have always had a good experience. Very confident with the wonderful care I receive.

extremely long wait Dawn the receptionist is rude on the phone and overbooks appointments,patients that came in after me went in ahead of me with no explanation of why I had to sit and wait for 1 hour to be seen by the Dr. I came 10-15 minutes early and still had to wait to be seen over an hour. Dr Schott is a very nice dr very thorough. But if I have to go thru Dawn to book another appointment or to pick up a prescription that she couldn't even get right,then I won't be back

Dr.Schott has been my doctor for 12 years. He takes extra time to answer my questions, orders all tests he feels are necessary to solve my problem. Dr.Schott is very caring and does not talk down to me like some doctors I have seen before. I have had to wait to be seen, but he always takes the necessary time and doesn't rush in and out. I like seeing a REAL doctor. The staff is wonderful about working me and my family in if we are sick.

Publisher's Description
This classic textbook, widely used for over two decades, constructs a history of ancient Israel and Judah through a thorough investigation of epigraphical, archaeological, and biblical sources. Approaching biblical history as history, Miller and Hayes examine the political and economic factors that give context to the Israelite monarchy's actions and the biblical writers' accounts. Now updated with the latest research and critical discoveries, including the Tel Dan Inscription, and considering the lively debate surrounding the reliability of biblical accounts, Miller and Hayes's judicious and even-handed portrayal gives detailed attention to the nature, strengths, and limitations of various forms of evidence for understanding Israel's origins and early history. The new edition also includes thirty-four new maps, helpful notes, and numerous charts and photographs.

I know I have read that IVF patients are at a higher risk for PPD but wasn't sure if there is any link between less extreme hormonal "assistance". We are TTC#2 but I haven't been getting periods for months on end so my next option may be to use Provera to get a period, Clomid to ovulate, and Prometrium to sustain a pregnancy. Being a PPD survivor I am just worried if all those "artificial" hormones are going to increase my chances of getting PPD again. Nurse said she doesn't think so but I thought I would check with you other survivors to see if you have any thoughts or experience. Thanks.
Link between fertility meds and PPD?
Comments (3)
From my personal experience, I did not need any assistance to get pregnant with my first and I did with my second, and I had pretty bad PPD both times. I would not say it was worse the second time, though. I think I most likely would have had it with or without infertility treatment, but I can't say for sure.
I tried Clomid 4 times and then tried IUI with injectibles, which was successful the first time. Since I tend to be hormonally sensitive, I was worried I would feel bad while taking the infertility meds, but that was not the case at all. I felt fine while taking the meds and during the pregnancy. The PPD hit a few days postpartum.
Good luck with TTC #2! You may not have PPD at all the second time around, but if you do, you know what to look out for and can start treatment right away.
I honestly have not noticed any difference with using fertility meds. However in my experience if you had post partum issues the first time you are going to have them the next time. I would have a plan in place before delivery.
It's interesting 'cuz I am the same as you two ladies. I was able to get pregnant on my own with my DD but am now TTC #2 and am having issues. Sometimes I wonder if it is because I am more "stressed' going into it this time knowing what MIGHT come after. Yes, I was/am doing great and considered myself as healed as can be from it but now going into it all again it is kinda bringing it to mind. Thanks ladies.

The Lamp and my "Insomnia"My name is Yuu (pronounced "you") and I suffer from Insomnia. No, I don't really have insomnia---but that's what I "jokingly" call what I'm experiencing. I live in a dorm room with my roommate and we each have our own habits and such. I like to get my studies done early in the...

Movie Info
Julie Walters and Hugh Bonneville headline this "Masterpiece Contemporary" production detailing the true life efforts made by one well-meaning but hopelessly overzealous village housewife to clean up the British airwaves. Britain, the 1960s: Caring Christian housewife Mary Whitehouse (Julie Walters) is watching the BBC, and she doesn't like what she's seeing. Incensed by the blatant obscenity of such programs as Doctor Who, Magical Mystery Tour, and Monty Python's Flying Circus, she organizes a grassroots campaign to confront BBC director-general Sir Hugh Greene (Hugh Bonneville) to get the offending programs taken off the air. … More
